A lush garden adorns each side of this box. On the lid, a delicate butterfly lands very gently atop a daisy, surrounded by blooms of every hue imaginable. The sides explore this garden even further, and if we look very closely, we can see many creatures going on about their day through the foliage and flowers. This box is made of high quality papier mache with a red lacquer interior. The hinge is at the top. This box is signed with the title, artist (N. Lopatkina), and village. A sensational work from the village of Kholui!
